Spotted: My ride - All Show 'n' No Go. Knock sensor reads higher than the car goes ATM and the temp is 16 degrees Hotter than that. Guess 100 on the knock, your right, after 2 minutes driving. I have @#$%^ had it and need to vent :) . Check "Members Ride" thread. Merry F'n Christmas.

Lucky I have 4 days off and a Pushy although Civic is a bit far for a Phat man.

just met a young asian guy (well aussie but of asian origon(sp?)) cruising down drakeford back toward the city, had a veilside front bar (or possibly full kit) with an exhaust, it was a non turbo but the owner was really nice, and i got big compliments for my car too which is always nice.

A big fat dude dressed in red, driving a red/white R32 from the north. He had a white beard.

Funny thing was, the car was being towed by reindeer......................can't trust them 32's.

Woo hoo!

I thought Tri had spotted me :spcartman but as I read on it turned out to be some other fat HPI dude.

Knowing our luck SANTA is probably a P Plater and the Pressies will be wraped around Telstra Tower in the morning.

HO HO HO HO HO HO:xmas:

Spotted what wouldve been in excess of a 600kw GTR out and about last night. Also had a dog box of some sorts judging from the whining it was making when it was driving round. Had the biggest f**king turbo I have ever seen in my life too. Apparantly running 41psi on a T51R so you know its going to be making some -serious- numbers.

Nik;

have you spotted your car on a dyno yet? we're all waiting patiently...

Spotted this morning:

Yellow dewinged white wheeled R34 GTSt in front of Duntroon. Waved but no response.

Big waves from Sinista the Winged Warrior on Constitution Ave heading towards the ATO end. Richard, will you please adjust the angle on that thing?! The jet wash caused so much turbulence I nearly had a flame-out in turbo 1, then turbo 2. Could've gone into a flat spin out to Civic pool! Ah well I guess that the inquiry would've cleared me...and then I get to fool around with Kelly...

Sounded v nice growling past too.

One of the local Snap On guys who's building an R30/31 with an RB26. Told him about the site, how he shouldn't waste his time coming on here, it was boring, the people aren't fun...and he said he can't wait to meet a few of us at the next Trivia night. Seemed like a very nice bloke indeed and when I said 'they don't really care what sort of Skyline you drive and love to take the piss out of eachother he said 'Excellent'. I doubt he'll last...heh heh

Cheers guys and gals, have a great Xmas and NY, stay safe and don't give the revenue raisers a dime over the next few days!

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
